Gd Electric & Controls Ltd

I had an outlet blow in my living room.I contacted Great Dane Electric.I was able to get an appointment right away.The technician arrived on time.The work was completed quickly and efficiently.I have had no problems whatsoever,and any future electrical needs, I will not hestitate to phone Great Dane Electric.Great job.

I had Great Dane do the electrical for a basement renovation at my house. They did a fantastic job and took care of the permit. The work was great (nice and organized) and Martin answered any questions I had. I thought the cost was very reasonable for the work that had to be done as it was an older house with an existing renovation that was poorly done that resulted in a rats nest that needed to be sorted. I really appreciated the work they did and would recommend them to anyone that asked.

When our garage out of power I called Great Dane electric and he look at it the following day don't need to wait for a week like the other electrician even though it's just a small job. They fixed the problem right away and he charge me for just $181.00 it's a good price and good service and quick as well. Thanks Dane electric I would highly recommend you to all my friends.

I needed some additional plugs on a new circuit and some re-wiring to separate lights that were all on one switch. Martin came to have a look and give me an estimate and Dan came in a week to do the work. Everything was done as I requested so I am happy with the results. Great Dane is a bit more expensive than the last company I used however I was in a time crunch and they got it done pretty quickly, were pleasant to deal with and quick to follow up. I would recommend them to a friend. Thanks Martin & Dan :)

he knew right where to look.it took him half hour to repair the issue.
then he showed me how to fix the other outlets the proper way.
he charged me $181.25.for his service.(very reasonable).
the man is a guru.very knowledgeable.thanks martin,you will be the only electrician i ever use.

I contacted Great Dane Electric (GDE) on a Thursday via phone to book an appointment for following week as my tenant had said there was no power in two of the bedrooms upstairs- however the breaker hadn't tripped. (My first call to 'another company" was unable to get me an appointment for 2 weeks)

Martin was able to book an appointment for me around my schedule for the following week. We conversed first on the phone then via TEXT which was VERY CONVENIENT because I am always on the go, plus all the details are in writing. He told me Dan would be coming over at 1pm. I asked a ball park question about rates and if it was blown breaker how much it was to replace. Martin, without hesitation messaged me back outlining that "It's $129 including travel and 30 min of labor after that it's Journeyman rate of 85$ hour. I won't be able to give you a price on material but a 15amp breaker is usually around $15' ... I appreciated that he was transparent and not vague about what the fees are for my straightforward question.. some companies don't want to tell you anything when you ask a straight forward question.

Dan ended up calling me the day of appointment because he didn't have the unit # for my townhouse from my initial booking. He was in the complex but didn't know which unit it was, (not a big deal as I was available to answer, only...a small hiccup)

Dan was still there within 15 minutes of my scheduled appointment. He trouble shot the problem and began testing every electrical outlet/switch in the two rooms, explaining that any wires that may be loose would cause both rooms not to work (townhouse was from 66 and that's how they did wiring back then). After going through each socket/switch finally on the last one he loosened something in the box and voila we had power. The clamp in the junction box appeared to be too tight and was pinching the wires --is what I understood to be the problem.

Dan explained Martin would contact me for invoicing. He was gone by about 3pm. Before I could follow up with Martin, he had sent me a message basically asking if I was happy. Which I was, because we now had power. Later that evening I received the invoice via email with a link to pay via email transfer (there were other options but this was the easiest). I had to re contact martin via text to have my unit # added to the invoice because it was missing on the first one and I needed it for tax purposes. New invoice was sent the same evening.

GDE was fantastic to deal with; I absolutely will be using them again for future renovation projects and for help with my rentals. I was confident they would be there and it was easy to re confirm as I knew martin was an avid text user and a quick message the day of appointment confirming if Dan was running on time was easy to send.

thanks guys! Natasha

Lost power in my rec room due to a short in a ground in the panel. Martin walked me through the process to locate the problem, including offering to walk me through the repair over the phone to avoid the cost of a service call. Decided to have a professional do the work so Martin sent Dan out the next day and the repair was completed on time and as quoted. Very pleased with their service and will use them again in the future.

Confusion over the time that the electrician was coming but when he got here he was very helpful. Could be more detailed on the fact that the booked time is a range, NOT a set time. I was told 9:45, not 9:45-10:45 which is what the electrician was told. The electrician was very kind, efficient and cleaned up after himself as well. The owner followed up with the service right away to ensure everything went well and I really liked that. He promptly addressed the confusion around the appointment time and was very pleasant and helpful to deal with. I would use Great Dane Electric again.

Even though I only needed a small job done, the lights in the basement wired onto one light switch, Martin at Great Dane was happy to take on the job. Great Dane was easy to work with. Dan performed the work. He was professional and friendly. He gladly answered all of our questions. The work was done well. I would definitely use Great Dane again and recommend them.

A strange noise was emitting from around the outlet in the basement. I called Great Dane. As I described the issue, which can be tough occasionally, because when you are a woman requesting work done some tend to be condescending, thankfully he listened and took my concern seriously. An appointment was immediately booked for the next day. The gentleman who did the work was professional and efficient. Needless to say I called them when I required additional service and would recommend Great Dane to my friends.
